Extra time to get your Vail Resorts ski pass

Wednesday, 10 November 2010 5:31 PM

If you missed last Friday’s deadline for buying a Vail Resorts season pass, then don’t despair – all six passes for the American resorts can still be bought up until November 21.

Snap yours up now and get access to all eight resorts in the Vail group for $629 (£392). This means you can enjoy unlimited skiing at Vail, Beaver Creek, Breckenridge, Keystone, Heavenly, Sierra-at-Tahoe and Arapahoe Basin, as well as the newly acquired Northstar-at-Tahoe resort.

Alternatively if you’re just planning a flying visit to Colorado or California, then the Epic 7-pack might be the best option. This gives you seven days of unrestricted skiing at any of the above resorts for $479 (£299).

Or for the same price, choose the Colorado Pass which offers unlimited skiing and riding at Breckenridge, Keystone and Arapahoe Basin and 10 days at Vail and Beaver Creek as well as five days of skiing at Heavenly and Northstar-at-Tahoe in California as well.
